I can feel the energy in your comment lol

well said!

Thanks I will try to make more!

Everything you said is true

great choice I really want a planet ocean too

I agree the omega is an objectively more interesting watch and with a couple of changes it could be perfect!

I agree

Yeah my next Omega will be at a discount!

wow I haven't heard that before thanks

When I owned the blue seamaster I had the original bracelet but didn't give it much of a change because I bought the rubber strap but maybe I should have.

I agree. Bracelet is ICONIC

For the price and quality Omega offers you just cannot beat what they are offering today.

@@SuperSnakePlissken TRUTH 🫡

hmm maybe I should look more into it if it's a real problem thanks

Great point I wonder which one I would choose if history wasn't involved

BRACELET IS ICONIC 🔥🔥🔥

Great point now that you mention it. I imagined putting down SEIKO on both of them and looked at from different perspective. I am a rolex fan but Omega does seem to look better under same logo SEIKO

Only thing with this SMP might be the size. I'll probably buy it anyhow but what still holds me back is the thickness, 50mm lug to lug and 42 diameter. 39, 40 or 41 and I'd get it and green and white straight away

Spec wise I totally agree all of these watches are over build for what it is commonly used for

true!

Omegas movement isn’t better. Rolex just don’t need to play the metas game. Rolex is more accurate, beats at a higher rate with a larger power reserve.

👍

That's true as popular as Omega might be it's not really a household name

Who wants a household name?@@HawaiianHorology

Why do you want people to notice it, do you seek attention or validation? Wear it because you like it, anything else doesn't matter. Rolex is also a watch that screams rob me, everyone knows their design from far away. I like the stealth of most Omega watches. And they are great watches.

I totally agree!

I respect your opinion but to me you just spit out marketing material that Rolex uses. I have owned multiple Rolex watches over the last two decades and hands down the Daytona is their best watch. I think the Rolex Daytona is one of the best watches ever made. With that said, Omega especially for the price blows Rolex Submariner out of the water. My daily wear is a Omega Planet Ocean because it is everything you said about the Rolex but is true about the Omega. Rolex DOES not keep good time. This 5 second window is mute due to the fact most Rolex's lose time. Every Rolex I own even the Daytona loses time. It drives me nuts. At the end of a month I am 5 minutes slow and I have been slightly late too many times to meetings that I stopped wearing Rolex. I sold all of them minus my Daytona because they just don't keep good time. That's where Omega's co-axial blows Rolex out of the water. Omega guarantees you will never lose time just gain it. My Planet Ocean gains about 2.5 seconds a day putting me at about 5 minutes gained at the end of the month. I much prefer that. Really, the only reason you would buy Rolex is to look rich or as an investment which is one of the reasons I kept my Daytona white dialed Rolex. I can tell you this never once has someone asked me about my Omega's, "Hey, is that Omega real?" I cannot tell you how many times someone asked me about that when I wore my Rolex watches. Cheers!

@@SuperSnakePlissken When Philippe Dufour, Roger W smith, and Laurent Ferrier are all wearing a Rolex, I think that shows the brand is more than just marketing lol

@@Watch_for_me I can play that game too. George Washington wore a rolex.

@@SuperSnakePlissken I'm not sure what your sarcasm is alluding to. Philippe Dufour wears a Rolex Daytona as his daily watch, Roger W Smith wears an Explorer as his.

I feel like the only way to really know if you like a watch is to have it for a while.

@@HawaiianHorology yeah sure, if you're at the beginning of your journey, absolutely, bc you have to build up your tastes, that's why it is a good idea starting cheap. But if you're at your twentieth watch, well, if you still don't know if you'll like that watch after a few glances, and having it on your wrist a few times, then you're not building up any experience, you're just consuming, how you would do with a pizza.

Ok, maybe value retention is a real problem for compulsive buyers., who necessarily need to flip. But again, compulsive buyer = consumer, not committed enthusiast.

If you already have it on the OEM bracelet I would get it on the rubber strap for more variety, I feel like have the OEM and the mesh would be too similar. Thanks for watching!

seamaster for the win!

You know what nobody has ever asked me wearing my omega seamaster 300 M or even my planet ocean? “Is that real“? I used to get that question all the time with my Rolex submariner Kermit. I always tell people if you’re a watch person and you want an accurate timepiece that’s not gonna lose time that can last forever then youbuy an omega. If you want to look rich or want some kind of investment where you store the watch in a safe and never wear it buy a Rolex. The last thing I want to add is I would never buy a Rolex unless you buy it from an authorized dealer. They are so perfectly copied now that unless you remove the back and actually have an expert looking at the movement you’re not gonna know if it’s fake. There are movements that are so well replicated can’t even tell the difference. You don’t want to drop $10,000 or more on a fake Rolex. That’s the beauty of Romega you’ll know right away if it’s fake.

I love the mercedes hands!

In you opinion what watches have you held that felt better quality than a sub?

@@HawaiianHorology honestly, this sub was from 2001 supposedly, It almost felt too light and cheap I was wearing my SMP. This is a reputable jewelry store in my area so I doubt it was fake, but I'm starting to wonder

Next time check out the subs newer models 2014-2024​@JohnConnor636

I do believe that the seamaster needs a huge update. That should include a new bracelet and I think that a 40-41mm would be pefrect I hope they update it soon

@@let0atreides To be fair, Rolex can go 10 years without needing a service. It's cheaper than a Rolex service but not by much. maybe 100 to 200 dollars max. It's still an in house movement with specific parts that only Omega uses, just like a Rolex. I haven't needed to service either yet, but I'll let you know in 10 years when I get the invoice hahahahaha

@@let0atreidesThank you

The green is by far my favorite I used to have the blue which was also very nice but I didn't like the red text on it

​@@HawaiianHorologyfunny cause the red text was also the reason that put me off the blue! Great vid, cheers!

thanks so much!

lol

I agree!

I don't think they are that far apart

How rude of them! I hope I have more luck!

I agree 100 percent about the bezel action!!!

I think it's awesome and the blue matches perfectly with the LV outdoor messenger bag!

GORGEOUS WATCH 🔥🔥🔥

I was looking at the 39.5mm version and almost pulled the trigger! I really hope they update that line soon

I can see why you are mad about the ar coating why would they do that!?!?

@@HawaiianHorology It's not the end of the world, but it really bothered me lol

I'm an old man so the Rolex is perfect for me lol

I’ve owned both for a few years now... The bezel action is far superior. That shows which company put more thought into designing it and which company threw on something that works. The enamel vs platinum inlay means the platinum inlay IS higher quality. The platinum inside the Rolex bezel does not fade over time, so it is equal to enamel in this regard. The Rolex has a much better power reserve. It is thinner and slides under a cuff with ease. The clasp is not as bulky, and using the extension system does not lengthen the clasp. The Omega is not even more accurate. It is 0/+5 seconds per day. That is a 6 second window. The Rolex with +2/-2 is a 5 second window. Don't forget that the Rolex is more accurate with the use of a traditional Swiss lever which is way more impressive than the co-axial. The Rolex movement will beat at 8hz while the Omega beats at a choppy 7bph. This is something you can see throughout daily wear. The Omega hands will never be as smooth and they don't even trade better power reserve for it. The SMP bracelet is lackluster and pulls hair. It also doesn’t have any taper. Your only alternative without raising the price is the rubber strap which feels a lot better but doesn't have a deployment clasp, it's a pin buckle. The deployment clasp is more expensive. The Rolex has white gold hands, the Omega does not. Most importantly, the skeleton hands lume has a design flaw. The lume on the green minute hand dies far before the blue indices do, so if this were to be used as a divers watch, you wouldn't be able to time intervals correctly. The Rolex is more refined and most who own both agree with this. I can actually wear it on my smaller wrist and it doesn't look like a kid trying to wear a G-Shock.

@@fj7509 my seamaster gains a second each day - it rocks and I didn’t have to beg some salesmen to sell it to me

​@@fj7509Amen 🙏

Rolex submariner is perfect watch no doubt

great choice!

I hope that's the case!

not true

dang is that how I'm getting all the scratches on my watch lol

I agree about the bezel they need to really improve it. I wonder how the planet ocean sounds

haha!

Lol bro! You’re a loser!!

What a goofy design ! Butt ugly.

🤭

Very true, and a good reason why watches are poor investment devices (outside of some rarities, like most things). I buy Omega because I like them and I wear them. I also don't buy new. Let someone else take the initial value hit. I look for deals and values.

I've learned my lesson too Omega and Tudor I'm buying preowned

@@HawaiianHorologyTUDOR is a one TRICK PONY AND A FAKE ROLEX😂😂😂

Great choice!
